Once over the Cormet d’Arêche, a fast descent into the Beaufortain region awaits.



From the Col du Pré, the views over Lac de Roselend and Mont Blanc are picture-postcard, and cycling across the dam wall is always a thrill. We then head down to Lac de la Gittaz, a much less frequented spot. Gravel switchbacks

You will still get your fix of long tunnels on this variant, as we'll pass through some very long tunnels that used to be part of an old railway line. (You will need lights.) You will also get some stunning views

The Col de Turini is probably the most famous mountain pass in the Southern Maritime Alps, with lush dense vegetation and iconic hairpins. If you want to swap a long 4x4 descent for some smooth tarmac, then this is the descent to do it on in Section 2.

We start with an out and back up the Colle del Sommeiller, which peaks at 2,993 meters above sea level, making it one the highest roads in Europe. It’s a long gravel climb of 26 km, a little rough in places, especially near the top, but it’s always rideable and worth every bead of sweat. The pass sits
